Daily Devo | The Power of Knowing Who & Whose We Are (New Testament in a Year, John 13:1-20)

In a stunning act of humility, Jesus rises from the table, takes the role of a servant, and begins washing his disciples’ feet. When Peter objects, Jesus explains that this washing is necessary and points to a deeper spiritual cleansing that only he can provide. Jesus knows that he comes from the Father and is soon returning to the Father. In other words, he knows who he is and whose he is. Grounded in that identity, he demonstrates for us that God is a servant and as God's children, we should be also.
